what exactly is "no be d same thing"huh
I am comparing how Nottingham won d epl in a one-off fashion to d present leicester who I believe might be a one-off champion too. which one be 'no b d same'....I no understand again o grin
What i meant was that after winning the league in 1977/78 season they went on to win the European cup in 1978/79 season, 1979/80 season and the 1979 UEFA Super Cup. The also won the league cup of 1977/78 and 1978/79 seasons.

I get your point though of them winning the league in a one-off fashion. I was only stating that they were not a regular one-hit wonder as the won other competitions after the league triumph.

Even a simple search showed Leicester has spent £122,900,000 on new payers from 1992-date, how much more 132 years?
Lol... I didn't bother about verifying the claim as it looked super weak and lame.

In other news........

Make Weirdo Van Gaal just win the FA Cup and relocate to Netherlands to commence his retirement.

Whoever the new manager will be needs to make majority if his signings before the end of July. No unnecessary stalling, before we end up like Loserpool.

Let me give you an idea - £10 value today is not equal to £10 value of 1990.
Some posts should be ignored.

Only posters that does not have a good understanding of "Time Value of Money" and the general decline of the true worth of money over decades can make such a lazy comment.

How I wish Januzaj is fit to play?! I would have preferred him instead of Lingard! Having Martial and Januzaj on the flanks gonna definitely be a hit (back to back)!
I still have confidence in Januzaj, he's gonna come back good
But he needs to work hard and get the stupid "I have arrive" thinking. If he had stayed back instead of going on that career declining loan moved to Dortmund, he would have taken the RW role for himself.

Lingard cannot improve beyond his current level. Take nothing away from him.... he has got good movement and pace but his final output is super average.

Yeah... from news making the rounds on the Internet, we are genuinely interested in Kante. United will discuss with Leicester's top management during the next league game at Old Trafford. Left to me o, no unnecessary negotiations just drop 20M. Players like Kante usually have a Clause in their contract that makes it possible for them to leave at the right price. There is also the rumour that Leicester wants Pereira on loan.

What can be more useless than a league Claudio fucckihngg Tinkerman Ranieria can win.

A journeyman who spent almost 30yrs all over Europe without winning a single league title comes to England and took a relegation abttler to win the league

Better pray leicester doesnt win to at least save the EPL some shame

Ranieri coached Valencia, Atletico, Monaco, Juventus, Inter, Fiorentia etc and failed to win 1 title coaches Leicester to win the EPL

That must rank as the most useless league in the world
You conveniently left out Chelsea.

I have lost the respect I have for you. I won't deny that you possess topnotch knowledge about football but your love for flipping and twisting facts is way overboard.

How does Ranieri winning the league affect the quality of the EPL?

Klopp had not won shiit before he won the Burndisleaguedown for two consecutive years. So going by your statement above the Bundesliga is a useless league, right?

Young has always been a sicknotes even under Fergie. And he's no Messi.
Hence, I don't see the use of keeping him when a decent player can fill up his place in the team.
Also, the question should be where was Young at Lingaard's age?
Young at Lingard's age was a top british talent and rising star at Aston Villa with the likes of Downing, Reo-Coker, Milner, Agbonlahor and Barry they were ripping teams apart in the EPL where they finished 6th ahead ofv Liverpool. At the age of 25 he was signed by United for around 16M pounds (that's currently about 20M pounds). He also had more than 10 england caps before joinnig United. Also note that at 21 he commanded a fee of about 10M pounds when he was signed by Villa from Watford.

Young at Lingard's age was in the team of the year for two straight seasons 2007/08 and 2008/09. He was also the PFA young player of the year for 2008/09 season.

I think Ramdeuter keeps forgetting that clean sheet depends mostly on the defence infront of the keeper.
With Blind's rookie display in the defence in the first half of the season before his acclimatisation and with Smalling dropping off in the second half of the season, not to mention the average joe like Darmian and Rojo completing the defence, you would hardly expect De Gea to constantly keep clean sheet.
De gea has been great this season and you just have to give it to him.
August 2015 to December 2015 29 matches 15 clean sheets..... 51%

January 2016 till date 20 matches 6 clean sheets..... 30%

So how is that the fault of Blind from the first half of the season?

The injury that affected the team at the midpoint of the season was the major issue with our defence and not Blind.

Bros free Blind.

Smalling has made more goal causing errors/plays than Blind this season. Because Blind is not 6' 4 or 6' 5 tall or built like DAF truck does not mean he can't play as a CB.

Lloris has kept 13 clean sheets so far this season and the CIES, an independent football study centre in Switzerland, ranked him as the seventh best performing keeper in Europe this season.

The CIES, an independent football study centre in Switzerland, ranked Bayern Munich’s Manuel Neuer the most impressive keeper in the top five leagues based on six key indicators: goals conceded per math, number of minutes per goal conceded, number of passes per match, number of saves per match, number of saves per goal conceded and percentage of saves.
Bayern Munich’s Manuel Neuer topped the charts, with Atletico Madrid stopper Jan Oblak second, Juventus legend Gianluigi Buffon in third and Paris Saint-Germain’s Kevin Trapp lying fourth.
Lloris is the only English top-flight keeper to make the top ten – he saved 73.9 per cent of shots (Neuer had a 78.8 per cent save percentage) – with no place for Manchester United star David de Gea, who was named in the PFA team of the year, and Arsenal’s Petr Cech.


CIES best-performing goalkeepers
Manuel Neuer – Bayern Munich
Jan Oblak – Atletico Madrid
Gianluigi Buffon – Juventus
Kevin Trapp – Paris Saint-Germain
Claudio Bravo – Barcelona
Victor Enyeama – Lille
Hugo Lloris – Tottenham Hotspur
Alphonse Areola – Villarreal
Keylor Navas – Real Madrid
Pepe Reina – Napoli
You don come with jeku jeko report again!

De gea has 14 cleansheets in the EPL alone as shown below, plus i don't need some skewed stats to tell me that De gea is far better than Lloris.

I hope to get the €6,720 soon but I'm not working presently and I intend using my dad who is a salary worker and earns over 100k monthly as sponsor and depositing the money into the sponsor's account using his name before transferring it into my account. Please in what proportion can I deposit the money? Can I deposit it into his account with his name at once or should I just split it into smaller proportions, lets say 150,000 daily. I also want to know if the Migri peeps wud ask how the large deposits in my dad's account came about.
Also, I want to know how feasible it is for me to use one who is not a family member(e.g church pastor or member) as sponsor. Thanks
Hmmm... that's a difficult question for me, as i don't have an experience regarding money lodgement from the the Sponsors perspective.

My Advice.....
You can use a church member/pastor who is ready to provide proof relating to source of income but the sponsor will need to write a cute letter saying that he is your guardian or uncle/aunt (we don't bear same surname as all of our uncles/aunts) and has been sponsoring your education since high school. The letter should also show the sponsor's commitment to support you financially whenever needed.

For the records, this is the first (and only) post that mentioned Hazard's name with Ronaldo and Messi in the same sentence. The poster is a Man Utd fan.

Before long you will see people shouting up and down that Hazard managed to score two goals and 'Chelsea' fans have started hyping him, comparing him to Ronaldo and Messi.

Everyone take note.
Solo Makinde!

Which is to blame between your poor comprehension skills and the effect of Chelsea's abysmal season for your inability to read and understand a simple post?

Lolz... I was about to tag you say your guy don open him account at last on Week 34.

Jokes apart, Hazard is an exceptional and very good footballer but he has been exposed to be emotionally weak with little or no hunger to push into Ronaldo-Messi esque mode. He seems to be fine with being a regular Thomas, no zeal to push beyond his present level. As a United fan I was pissed we couldn't snap him away from Lille before he came to Shekpe FC.


Oga Ade how does the above equal to

1. Comparing Hazard to Messi/Ronaldo
2. Hyping Hazard

And when did it become a crime to mention Hazard (a very good young player) and Messi/Ronaldo (the benchmark for effective and extremely good players).

My post as shown above acknowledged Hazard's talent as an excellent footballer. The same post also noted his short comings most especially the hunger to be a beast like Messi/Ronaldo. Hazard is emotionally weak, he lacks the level of self motivation required to be a football great. The ninja is okay as a local champ.

Hello Guys,

I currently have a job and earns over 100k monthly. I intend to state this as the salary lodgements will appear on my account statement. Despite this, I plan to use someone as a sponsor. I hope I won't encounter any challenge going this route?

Regards
With a well prepared explanation letter your RP should be granted in less than 4 weeks.

First, you will need to write an explanation letter where you will state that you are working and earning over 100K. You will also need to provide support documents such as employment letter and payslip. You can also state about 2 0r 3 reflection of your salary on your bank statement stating the date and amount and agreeing it to your pay slip.

Since you will be using a sponsor, ensure that he transfers 1.5M naira (6720 euros) directly from his account (the one or part of the one that you will be presenting to MIGRI) to yours as MIGRI will check to see the flow of the fund. You will also need to provide proof of source of income for your sponsor.

Salary earner sponsor
Employment letter (and letter of promotion if available)
copies of payslips
bank account statements


Business owner sponsor
incorporation documents
balance sheet and Income statement of the business
bank account statements


lastly, If your sponsor or you, the applicant have rental income you can also include;
property documents
agreements with tenant(s)
receipt of rental income payment
.......it is more convincing if rental amount on agreement agrees to what is on the receipt and cal also be traced to the bank statement

Hazard is not and will never be on cr7 n messi's level, you guys should stop comparing him to those two. Although you are right when mentioned in your post he is weak emotionally. Hazard is an introvert just like messi. They don't like to be shout or call out in any scenario instead you talk to them in a polite way. They are good people who don't want to offend people vice Versa.
I was not comparing Hazard to Messi/Ronaldo.... I was referring to their consistency.

May be a striker.
With does 3 signings what will become of Mata, Januzaj and Lingard. One of dem will have to be leave the club with respect to getting a new Right winger.

I think Carrick is more useful to United than Tieger at the moment, so he should be the victim of the introduction of a new midfielder.

If we are to add a new CF he should be at least a Tier 2 CF.

Blind is a good LB. But the problem is we have Luke Shaw who is better. Rojo is also contesting that position.

If everyone is fit, the house is even too full. Despite this we need 3-4 quality signings to be able to run next season smoothly. We need a squad of at least 30 senior players. Mensah and Rashford are already senior players.
What positions do you think we need the 3-4 signings ?

Players I am mostly not satisfied with as not up to United quality:
Darmian
Carrick.... Old age.
Ashley Young.... When not playing from the left.
But I don't think Memphis can take the LW position from Martial.

What about

Mata (too slow as a RW... has been ineffective as an AM)
TIEGER.... passenger all through the season
Herrera .... Mr. Hot and cold

It's the principal responsibility of the two centre banks to defend set plays. Then the four defenders together before others with aerial abilities. Remember we could also have crossing coming in from open play. This is EPL. Remember too how we conceded two goals from crossing against PSV in our first UCL game.

Blind also lack pace which makes others to be on the look at for him always. We play deep because of him, and then invite pressure.

When we had Vidic+Ferdinand or Brown in our CB in 2006-2009 we hardly conceded from set play. Vidic would count steps far off to head out an aerial ball not even droping to his zone. Ferdinand also did that in a lesser degree. If it’s too close to the goal, it's a bonus to VDS. Even when we played short Evra and Rafael, we didn't have problems. But today we have full backs covering for CBs.

Look at Chelsea, Terry+Cahill/Zouma/Ivanovic, very powerful in the air. Look at Madrid. Pepe+Ramos.
I get you bro... We are saying the same thing. Blind's lack of aerial prowess is being exposed mainly because we lack good height in other areas of the team and that is the chief reason why LVG has to play Fellaini against some teams.

I feel Blind should be a squad player because his lack of pace will also expose him as a LB or CM/DM but his on the ball intelligence can be an asset on the field of play. Therefore there is a need for some tradeoffs.

PS... Evra short but the ninja get above average aerial prowess.

Those kids can't win league. We saw them when they went to play Europa. And some strong league matches. Watford could have been up 3-0 at half time. In some matches we never had the quality to get going.
Exactly!

For me o.... we need a Tier 1 CF and a solid box to box midfielder. I believe if Jones can be fit regularly we don't need to splash cash on a CB.

My major problem is with pretenders like Mata and Memphis.
